I couldn't resist the return of the SA FG and sent in an order requesting "low serial number". We will have to check back in 3-4 months and see if our requests were met.I specified in today's order for a FG SA: 1. WWII receiver, 2. GI wood, 3. Milled TG.
We can hope...

Well, this all came from the CMP and I figure I'd give my hands a rest from hitting "refresh" on the e-store link while I wait for my SA SG.

did that come today? May I ask when you ordered? I have an ammo order in from mid March. If an item is back ordered, do you know if they ship what they have on hand and fulfill the rest at a later date? Thanks.

Depending on the ammo, you should be getting it like now. I ordered 400 rounds of loose HXP and an HRA SG. The ammo already arrived. The rifle is still in limbo on the estore.

They will ship as soon as inventory allows or they decide to focus on a particular area....such as ammo.Thanks. I was worried since I ordered .22 with the Greek 30.06 that it may get held up til the .22 came back in stock. I'll be watching.
Oh, I expect a healthy wait for .22. It said six months to a year! But I purchased a metric shit ton. That is an industry term I believe. So once it does arrive, I'll be all set for the next freak out.They will ship as soon as inventory allows or they decide to focus on a particular area....such as ammo.
Rest assured if you didn't get your 22 ammo order in by Feb 24???? Something like that. You wont see it until after October. At least that what orest of cmp said. Also be reminded they got over 6000 orders for ammo back logged.

Can't do much with the 30.06 until the rifle arrives anyhoo. I just like to stalk packages, and NES threads.

Just ordered another can of ammo and a bayonet...I think I have a problem...
Best of luck, I hear they do their best to honor those types of requests, but you may have to wait for what you want to come up in rotation.
Oldguns.net lists my serial # as 1942.... but 1943 works for me just as well, I will post pics as soon as it arrives, got tracking number, but nothing yet on FedEx website..
Funny I originally ordered an HRA (I already have a '50's Springfield) and switched to the Springfield when I heard the HRA's were backordered...Man am I glad I did!
You should be any day now. Post those picks! May the GI wood be with you!
